Color Me Barbra: An Art Appreciation

 

 

Music and Art
The opening sequence of Barbra's second television special, Color Me Barbra, was filmed at the magnificent Philadelphia Museum of Art.

If you'd like to learn something about the works of art that were featured in the show, here's your chance.

This is the online version of a companion book we put together for a visit to the museum back in 1997.

   

   

The Color Me Barbra Tour of the Philadelphia Museum of Art

"Did I ever show you my sketches? ..."
Here is your chance to experience the treasures of The Philadelphia Museum of Art and enjoy the same works of art as seen in Barbra Streisand's TV special, "Color Me Barbra."

Welcome to the complete fan's guide to the art of "Color Me Barbra," which I researched as a compendium to an art appreciation tour of the museum in 1997.

The guide will take you through the museum, specif
ically highlighting and identifying the location of those works of art which featured prominently in the show. There is a brief history of each artist and his work.

With a few exceptions, the art seen in "Color Me Barbra" is still on display.  A trip to the Philadelphia Museum of Art is a wonderful cultural journey, and a great fan experience. So, until you get there in person, enjoy our virtual "Color Me Barbra" tour of the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
